How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A tightly wound political thriller where a career criminal becomes an unwitting witness to presidential crimes and must stay alive long enough to expose the truth. The tension comes not from heists but from the cat-and-mouse game between a man with dangerous knowledge and the machinery of state power hunting him.
